As local MEP, I am concerned over the unexpected and sudden closure of White House Park children’s care home on Chorley Road, Chorley by its owners Ridgway Children’s Services.
Of course, the ideal situation would be that children can be spared from having to go into care, but for some young people, a care home provides the only chance of the stability and safety they require.
I urge Lancashire County Council to rethink their dangerously short termed and ill judged decision to close five of the fifteen care homes they operate.
